Iran’s New Leader Obsessed With End Times

So it sounds like the new leader of Iran could be more radical than the old Ayatollah who just got smote.  Remember that many Shiite Muslims believe that there is a dude who has been hiding in a well ever since Muhammad’s funeral 1400 years ago.  They believe that when the world is in total chaos that Allah will bring this dude out of the well and make him a world leader.  They refer to him as the Mahdi.  15 years ago we blogged on this topic a lot because Ahmadinejad was the President of Iran and he was a “twelver” which refers to those who hold strong beliefs in the “12th Imam” aka as “the Mahdi”.

Some twelvers not only believe this eschatology but believe that THEY are responsible for causing the global chaos to hasten the return of Mahdi.  Sounds like this new leader is one of them.  Maybe USA and Israel can find  the crack he’s hiding under too?

I will remind those who say, “how can anyone be so stupid to believe that crap?”  Christians believe that Jesus died 2000 years ago and that he is alive in his resurrected body but is in another dimension.  When the earth is about to enter the Great Tribulation, God the Father will send Jesus in the clouds to call all his followers into the clouds where we will get new bodies and be with him forever.

They both sound insane to atheists.  Of course our story is TRUTH and Islam’s story was cooked by Satan to prepare Muslims for the Antichrist of the Bible.  Clever for sure!

With Mojtaba Khamenei, the Iranian regime elevated a dangerous ideologue who is obsessed with the end times – and even believes he is a prophesied figure playing a key role in bringing about the return of the Mahdi, according to several experts.

This isn’t particularly surprising considering that “Iran is a theocracy in which the mosque is the state, the Qur’an provides constitutional logic, and eschatology shapes foreign policy,” as Ali Siadatan has recently explained on AIN.

He is a former Iranian operative who participated in the creation of Iran’s proxy forces in neighboring Iraq, and studied with the new Supreme Leader in the Shia seminaries in Qom in his youth.

Speaking on ArabCast, Rajabi noted that the elder Khamenei wasn’t as obsessed with the end times, nor was he a racist like his son, who believes in “Persian supremacy.”

“He (Mojtaba) says the Persians are the true companions of the Imam of the Time, the Awaited Mahdi. Persians first… Mojtaba, from the beginning, has been a hardline Shia extremist.”

In a recent interview with The Atlantic, journalist Graeme Wood recounted that Rajabi had told her that while the elder Khamenei “demonstrated a willingness to bend and reach out to allies to ensure his regime’s survival… Mojtaba, by contrast, is calculating and ideological, and willing to cause terrible destruction to the world just to prove a point.”

Over the past few months, Rajabi has given several interviews, warning that his former study partner is much more dangerous than his father, and had predicted that he would grab power long before he was chosen to succeed his father.

In The Atlantic, Rajabi recounted that during their studies, “he came to view the supreme leader’s son as a brilliant zealot, much more extreme and uncompromising than his father, and a uniquely dangerous potential successor.”

He described Mojtaba as “apocalypse-obsessed” at this time, adding that “He thinks there are milestones on the path to the end of the world and he himself will have a special part in hastening humanity down that path.”
